The Resurrection and the Life

The Bishop of Manchester celebrates the Christian inspiration behind the hospice movement, 40 years after the foundation of Greater Manchester's largest hospice.

40 years after the foundation of Greater Manchester's largest hospice, the Bishop of Manchester, the Rt Revd Nigel McCulloch, preaches at this service giving thanks for a tradition of end of life care inspired by the Christian belief that every individual has a unique dignity before God. Such a belief lies behind the compassionate approach which seeks to embrace every person, regardless of faith or conviction, who comes into contact with the hospice movement right across the UK. Leader: Deborah Hollamby. Live from Emmanuel Church Didsbury with the St Ann's Festival Choir directed by John Pomphrey and with organist Jeffrey Makinson. Producer: Stephen Shipley.
